What does this mean?

This isn't the actual funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security (the agency that handles border security, airport screening, disaster response through FEMA, and immigration enforcement) — it's a procedural resolution that sets the rules for how the House of Representatives will debate and vote on that funding bill, known as H.R. 7744. In plain terms, it decides things like how much time lawmakers get to argue over it, which amendments can be offered, and when the final vote happens, rather than deciding any actual spending amounts or policies. So the people directly affected are members of Congress and the legislative process itself, not the public directly — though it does determine the path toward whatever funding decisions eventually get made for Homeland Security operations in the next fiscal year.
